Following Broadcom's takeover of VMware, we're seeing a significant change: moving to a subscription model that could bump up support costs significantly, anywhere from triple to ten times what they are now. This jump means customers must consider other options, especially since the new VMware packages are changing from perpetual licensing. Experts are suggesting moving away from VMware to dodge these rising costs.

Our method for moving workloads to AWS is a tidy five-step process. First, we automatically check out what you've got on-site, listing all your VMs, networks, and apps and measuring how much energy they use and their carbon footprint. Next, we sit down with you to determine which workloads are top priority based on what's essential for your business and tech needs. Then, we map out how everything connects and plan the move based on how big the job is, always looking for ways to cut down on carbon and costs. The second-to-last step is where we move your workloads over to AWS with some nifty tools. And finally, we make sure everything is set up perfectly with AWS, ready for you to hit the ground running. In short, we're offering a smooth, smart, and cost-effective path to AWS with our deep expertise and a focus on what's best for you.
